Which organisation is this ?
It's the 635 members of the House of Commons, the same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us inline.
What a bunch of b*****ds we have running our country - it says it all. And just to top all that they probably have the best 'corporate' pension scheme in the country!!
If you agree that this is an appalling state of affairs, please pass it on to everyone you know. It's
Commons Leader Harriet Harman unveiled the controversial changes to the funding of the MPs' pension scheme today
Taxpayers will be forced to pay millions to bail out the gold-plated pension scheme for MPs.
The announcement by Commons Leader Harriet Harman yesterday prompted fresh outrage over pay and perks at Westminster.
While taxpayers will put in an extra £800,000 a year, MPs themselves will be asked to find just an additional £60 a month for what is one of Britain's most generous schemes.
The move was attacked by both the Tories and the Liberal Democrats, who said it would be a 'spectacular own goal' as taxpayers struggle to make ends meet in a recession.
The timing of Miss Harman's proposals also prompted bewilderment, coming after days of controversy over MPs' expenses claims.
Taxpayers already pay 26.8 per cent of an MP's pensionable salary into their pension pot but that will rise to 28.7 per cent from today.
That means taxpayers will have to fork out an extra £800,000 a year to fund MPs' final salary pensions - though Miss Harman made no mention of that in a statement to Parliament.
Like many pension schemes, the MPs' fund faces a £51million deficit, largely because its members are living longer.
To plug the gap, Miss Harman said the Government wanted MPs to hand over an extra 1.9 per cent of their salary, equivalent to around £60 a month.
The Treasury, meanwhile, would increase its annual contribution from £12.4million to £13.2million
THE RECCESSION
Can anyone explain why in the worst reccession in
history , this government keep bailing out the Banks and
financial institutions who for year after year have
consistently ripped off , us the great British public? Is it
because we are seen as spineless and gutless ,always
afraid to fight back or question the corrupt arse holes
who govern us ? Perhaps we deserve what we have .If
the government wanted to help us out of Reccession this
is what needs to be done .
1] Stop giving money to the banks [ our money ] return
it to US the people who have paid every tax levied on us
year after year .
2]Put EVERY banker who has led their institutions into
bankruptcy, in court and charge them with Corruption.
3] Put people in charge of government departments who
are qualified to make financial decisions ,not put them
there as a favour eg. Peter Mandelson [ How the F***
was he made a Lord ?
4] Divide the £150,000,000 that is being electonically
supplied to the banks for them to lend ,amongst the
taxpayers of the Country THAT WILL STIMULATE
THE ECONOMY .
5] Stop bailing out lame duck firms . What is the point of constantly manufacturing new cars , when there are a millionplus stockpiled and rusting in giant car parks all over the UK
6] Finally LISTEN to the great british public , or face the
